datapath: Make the datapath responsible for choosing port numbers.
Soon we will allow for multiple datapath implementations. By allowing
the datapath to choose the port numbers, we possibly simplify some datapath
implementations, and the datapath's clients don't have to guess (or to
check) what port numbers are free, so this seems like a better way to go.
